Pros:

Was surprised by the bathroom. Looked like had recently been done up, was very clean and one of the best showers I had had in a hotel for sometime. Bed was hard, which is my preference, so great nights sleep. Was unfortunate that did not have enough time for breakfast but the homemade brown bread was delicious. All in all, was pleasantly surprised by the hotel.

Cons:

Decor in reception a bit tired and could do with a little sprucing up. Also while parking on Denny street was not an issue, was a little confused by the parking situation given didnt know way around Tralee.

Perfect night away
Pros:

Really charming hotel in the heart of Tralee. We (parents and 19 year old daughter) stayed in a triple room which had a very comfy King size bed and sofa bed. The room was spacious, very clean and smartly decorated. The bathroom too was very clean and modern with lots of hot water. All the staff we encountered where really friendly and helpful. Breakfast was cooked to order and very delicious, with a nice selection to choose from. Will definitely be back

Cons:

We weren't made aware that the hotel provides complimentary parking permits at reception for nearby public car parks based on a first-come, first-served basis. There is free on street parking over night but paid during the day

Pros:

It was nice

Cons:

Very loud with windows open to the alley and the bar was loud with cleaning and early deliveries. It was not good, also garbage smell at a couple of points coming in window. Would not recommend if you are going to open windows. We also had to pay for parking on the street 3 blocks away, with luggage. Not good.

Pros:

Nice old hotel decor

Cons:

Breakfast buffet and hot menu is average.
Rooms are clean and updated. But no place in bath to hang or place a hand towel. Also no outlet for hairdryer for women in bathroom but outlets for men’s shaver - which barely exist anymore as all are rechargeable type

Excellent Hotel
Pros:

Excellent staff, excellent large room, excellent A/C, excellent shower, excellent breakfast (except for the scrambled eggs which were terrible). The breakfast included a buffet with cold items like fresh fruit and yogurt and then you can order a full breakfast from a menu.

Clean and central location

Central to town, clean facilities and great food and service
